愛爾蘭—英國關係

愛爾蘭－英國關係泛指愛爾蘭和英國的一切雙邊關係與交流。英國的權力下放政府，蘇格蘭、威爾斯和北愛爾蘭，^[1]以及曼島、澤西島和根息島，也參與了兩國間的多邊關係。^[2]但對於國際關係中而言，屬地是英國的一部分，他們依然代表英國政府。^[3]

17世紀初期，開始建立了政治上的聯繫，並於1801年建立大不列顛及愛爾蘭聯合王國後達到高峰。1922年時愛爾蘭島上大部分土地脫離了聯合王國，並成立了愛爾蘭自由邦。從歷史上看，兩國間的關係嚴重受到共同歷史因素所困擾，愛爾蘭自由邦的獨立和北愛爾蘭的統治問題。包括愛爾蘭分區劃分與愛爾蘭的分裂條款，及後來演並成北愛爾蘭政治暴力事件，與憲法關係和對英國的義務的條款。此外，兩國間的大量貿易，以及極其相似的地理位置、共同的歷史和密切的文化和個人連結，意味著這兩個國家政治發展往往追隨對方。

爱尔兰和英国在1973年加入了欧盟（当时为欧洲共同体）。然而，英國的三个皇家屬地，即曼島、澤西以及根西，仍然在欧盟之外。 2011年5月，英女皇伊丽莎白二世对爱尔兰展开爱尔兰独立以来的首次访问。2016年6月，英国举行了全民投票，其中多数投票决定离开欧盟；但北爱尔兰的大多数选民投票支持留在欧盟。
